The event benefits the Multiple Myeloma Research Foundation (MMRF), which is committed to accel- erating the development of treatments for the incurable blood cancer. The idea for Wine & Dine in the D came from its founder, Bloomfield Township resident Sid Moss, who has the disease and credits MMRF for pro- viding him, and other patients, with a quality of life that wasn't attainable prior to the foundation's research. The evening will begin at 5:30 p.m. with a roundtable presentation by Dr. Jeffrey Margolis, president of Michigan Healthcare Professionals, PC; Dr. Jeffrey Zonder of the Karmanos Cancer Institute; Dr. Daniel Couriel of the University of Michigan Comprehensive Cancer Center; and Joan Levy, MMRF director of transi- tional research and others. The wining and dining begins at 6:30 and includes specialties from some of Metro Detroit's top restaurants. Local Michigan wineries and microbrewer- ies will be featured, as well as boutique wines from around the world. Detroit jazz artists Ursula Walker and the Buddy Budson Quintet will provide the entertainment. Tickets are $175 each, or $275 for a patron ticket, which allows the pur- chaser to attend the afterglow reception. Special reduced-rate tickets are available for multiple myeloma patients.
